San Angelo, Texas (May 6, 2023) – One person was injured Friday afternoon in a head-on collision in San Angelo, according to the police.

The crash happened on May 5, at the intersection of University and Johnson.

Police said a Dodge Dart passenger car was traveling toward Johnson on University when the driver disregarded the red light and turned left into the path of a gray Dodge Ram 2500 pickup.

The Ram pickup crashed into the Dart, spinning it around and pushing it into the inside lane.

A black Cadillac SUV was traveling southbound on Johnson, and it crashed head-on into the Dart.
